M.E. Labs Trainer: Now available for $99.99! Learn programming concepts with a full tutorial and matched experimenter board. Includes
PBP3 Student Edition. Device Programmer built on board. All you need is a Windows computer with a USB connection.

These discounted packages are designed to be complete systems for PIC microcontroller development. Purchasing a system insures you get everything you need and that all the components play nice together.

Our device programmer family supports over 500 Microchip microcontrollers. The melabs U2 Programmer has become one of the most popular PIC programmers in the world. Our latest offering is the melabs Field Programmer, which can operate as a standalone programmer and read you hex code from an SD card.

ME Labs is committed to providing zero insertion force programming adapters for as many chip packages as we can. This includes most of the surface-mount packages that Microchip offers. Many of these adapters require us to spec custom-made sockets. We even make a ZIF adapter for the tiny 3-pin SOT package. (You might need tweezers and a magnifier to drop the part in.)

Our LAB-X Experimenter Boards are set up to work seamlessly with our compilers and programmers. These boards are intended to be learning tools, but also function as convenient platforms for feasibility testing and startup development for experienced engineers. If you need a quick and easy hardware platform that will give you lightning fast results, these boards do the job.

We offer bare boards for most PIC microcontroller packages. These boards are intended to provide a convenient base for building prototypes. Each board meets the fundamental circuitry needs of the microcontroller and also offers an array of plated-thru holes where you can easily construct the remainder of your design.
